Doggy Day Care Lakeshore

“Chrystal was very receptive and understanding of the needs for my old husky girl. Actually, she confirmed that my dog was very sweet with people, mainly herself and her family. Crystal was able to work and stay with my dog as I mentioned was desirable as my dog has had separation issues. It looks like my dog was taken very good care of and I appreciate it.”

“VJ and Matthew took amazing care of my dog Willa! They were so communicative and sent lots of pictures and videos. Willa seemed to have a great time with their dogs and feel comfortable despite her anxiety. Will definitely be booking again!”

Rosie S.

“Baxter has stayed Andrea and her pups twice for daycare, with hopefully more days to come! Andrea has a gentle, kind spirit and seems very attuned to a dog's needs. At our meet & greet, she asked great questions about Baxter and his routines. She provided fun updates with pics a few times a day -- much appreciated!”

“Ruthy is the best! Huey goes to the dog park multiple times a day and is socializing with the other dogs all day. He comes home tired, happy and hungry. Thank you ruthy!! ”

“We always feel so comfortable and relieved when Snowy is in Anchisa's care. Ancihisa sends wonderful photographs and updates, and provides a warm and safe environment for Snowy.”

“Tamara was very accommodating for a last mintue reservation. We appreciated her flexibility. Calliope takes a little extra care to win her over--Tamara did an excellent job. Tamara's pup Sidney got along great with our pups. I would highly recommend her she is warm and caring and knows her stuff when it comes to dogs.”

“Alison was really nice, and my dog was drawn to her right away at our meet and greet. She was really understanding with me as a first time app user, and made me feel safe about leaving my dog with a stranger for the first time. She handled my dogs separation anxiety really well and sent me updates so I wouldn't worry. I would definitely book again.”

Erin W.

“Alejandra is the best! Lou loves hanging out with her and Nemo. We feel very grateful that he is safe and has fun when he is in Alejandra’s care.”

“Finn had a great time with Vanessa. She’s very kind and easy to communicate with, and Finn appreciates her great yard. Finn had a great time with Vanessa’s dog Robin. We will definitely book again!”

“Maia is a great and very trustworthy dog sitter! My little senior dog had a great time with her and her dog, Shaka. Very trustworthy and took the dogs out for walks frequently :)”

“Lisa and Cameron were absolutely wonderful with Poe! We needed someone to watch him for a few hours over three consecutive days while we had construction happening at our house and my husband and I had unusual work schedules, and they were incredibly flexible and accommodating throughout the whole thing. Poe clearly had the best time staying with them: playing in their backyard, going on walks, and spending time with their family and kids. We have a baby on the way, so it was especially nice knowing he was getting some positive time around younger kids, and Lisa and Cameron said he did great with them. They also sent us adorable photos and videos every day, which we loved. Poe came home happy, tired, and ready for a very good sleep after getting so much attention and exercise! This was our first time having Lisa and Cameron watch Poe, but we would absolutely book with them again. They are such warm, friendly people and clearly great with dogs. We felt completely comfortable leaving Poe with them and highly recommend them!”

“Shannon was a great communicator from the start and helped me out super last-minute when I was in a pinch with needing care for my pup. She was great with Lucy, shared photos and let me know all they had been up to. Lucy was happy when I picked her up and slept really great that night. Shannon was professional, super attentive, and her schedule flexibility is so appreciated!! I’m glad I found her and Rocky and look forward to Lucy getting to spend more time with them!”

Valerie L.

“We’ve done vacation boarding, but suddenly needed some day care when we were having workers in the house. Anthony and Nikita kindly hosted Bear on short notice, which was much appreciated!”

About: Hi, we’re Olive and Charlie! We’re both a little obsessed with dogs, honestly — the kind of people who cross the street to say hi to someone’s dog. We each grew up caring for family dogs into their senior years, which taught us a lot about patience and paying close attention — noticing when a dog needs an easy day, or extra reassurance, or just to be left alone with their favorite spot on the couch. Those years shaped how we care for dogs now. These days we’re the go-to sitters for our friends’ dogs, and we’re in the thick of raising our own pup, Pigeon, who just turned one. Living with a curious, occasionally chaotic one-year-old has kept us sharp on positive training methods and reminded us daily that every dog has their own personality and pace — some want to run around and play, some want quiet company, some just want to know someone’s nearby. Whatever your dog needs, we’ll pay attention and meet them there. We’d love to take care of your pup! — Olive & Charlie (they/them) Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine because we’re both home most of the day. Your dog gets real attention and companionship, not just a quick check-in between long stretches alone. Our home is a calm, pet-friendly space — we keep it tidy, hazard-free, and easy for a visiting dog to settle into. Since we’re both home most of the day, your dog is never left unsupervised for long. We know that being in a new environment can be stressful, so we always give new dogs time to adjust at their own pace. We’ll get them settled into a cozy, smaller space with their comfort items or crate first, letting them decompress before exploring more of the home. We pay close attention to body language and stress signals and never rush a dog to warm up before they’re ready. For drop-in visits, we treat your home with the same care we’d want for our own. We follow your routines, stick to your dog’s schedule, and send photo updates so you always know how things are going and can see your pup happy and comfortable. Additionally we have a porch patio with a grass patch for pottying!

“Great communicator, frequent photos, and dogs seemed to have a great time with Gyasi and his pup!”

“My Italian greyhound, Timmy, had a great time staying with Sofia and her dog Luna! She was very responsive and great with Timmy. I would definitely book with Sofia again!”

About: *I only board pets from one home at a time and do not own any pets myself!* I love to jog around Lake Merritt, and I'd be happy to take your fur baby along for a run! I've cared for dogs and cats, healthy and sick, with very specific dietary restrictions and activity needs. I wish I could have my own pet, but since I travel pretty often, this is the next best thing. :-) I’m a Product Manager with a hybrid work schedule. Rest assured, I can easily get from work to home on in-office days for walks/drop-ins if needed. I also work at a dog friendly office. I am available most days for drop-ins 2x/day. On weekday evenings, I typically go on runs (with/without dogs!). Expect many photos of your fur baby while you're away! I'm happy to drop in to check on food, water, litter (for cats), and take your pup on walks. I am very detail oriented, so if you have very particular instructions regarding diet or preferences while outside, you can trust me to follow them. For boarding, I have bowls for water and food as well as doggy waste bags. You would need to provide their food, treats, toys, (litter for kitties), and anything else to make their stay more comfortable!

“Latricia is the best! Pika has been at her place quite a few times and was happy every time he went! He also became good buddies with Latricia’s dog Prince. She would send me awesome pictures of Pika without me asking so I know he’s having a blast there!”

“Zoey really enjoyed her stay with Alex! Thank you so much!”

About: I've always loved dogs and enjoy spending time with them, whether that's going for walks, playing, or just keeping them company. I know every dog has a different personality and routine, so I take the time to make sure they're comfortable and cared for the way they're used to. I work from home three times a week which gives me more time to care for pups. This is something that allows me more flexibility with care needs. I do not have any other pets in the home which allows your pet to have all my attention, therefore meeting whatever need they may have.
